24 February 2024 Unifont 15.1.05 is now available. This release adds the 222 CJK Unified Ideographs Extension D glyphs (U+2B740..U+2B81D) and 335 Plane 2 and Plane 3 common Cantonese ideographs, as well as other additions amounting to almost 600 ideograph additions, from Boris Zhang, Yzy32767, and others.
This release also replaces the Hangul blocks outside the Hangul Syllables range with new glyphs from Ho-seok Ee that are now consistent with the style of the Hangul Syllables glyphs.
Other minor changes are also included. Details are in the ChangeLog file.
This release no longer builds TrueType fonts by default, as announced over the past year. They have been replaced with their OpenType equivalents. TrueType fonts can still be built manually by typing "make truetype" in the font directory.

28 May 2023 Unifont 15.0.04 is now available. This is a minor release, and the final release to have TrueType fonts in its default build. Future releases will only build their OpenType equivalents, although it will still be possible to build TrueType versions manually by invoking "make truetype" in the font directory.
Minor changes have been made to Greek and Coptic glyphs in the range U+0370..U+03FF, adjusting the tonos placement for capital vowels and ensuring that all baseline and x-height alignments are consistent. Two heart icons were modified. Glyphs for the ConScript Unicode Registry (CSUR) script Engsvanyáli (U+E100..U+E14F) have also been added. Full details are in the ChangeLog file.

Significant changes in this version include contributions from David Corbett and Johnnie Weaver. Notably, the Unifont Upper font has now reached 11,000 Unicode Plane 1 glyphs.
